| | INTO OR FROM THE UNITED STATES, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, JAPAN, SOUTH AFRICA, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OF THAT JURISDICTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRESS RELEASE UNICREDIT ANNOUNCES PRICING OF THE OFFERING OF ORDINARY SHARES IN BANK PEKAO S.A. The proceeds amount to approximately PLN 3.7 billion (? 890 million) deriving from the sale of approximately no. 23.9 million ordinary shares of Bank Pekao S.A. at a price of PLN 156 per share Further to the press release published on 29 January 2013, UniCredit S.p.A. ("UniCredit") announces that it has sold no. 23.9 million existing ordinary shares in Bank Pekao S.A. ("Pekao" or the "Company") to institutional investors, corresponding to approximately 9.1% of the Company's issued share capital, at a price of 156 PLN per ordinary share in an accelerated bookbuilding offering (the "Placement"). The price represents a discount of c. 6%
to the pre-announcement closing price of Pekao and a discount lower than 4% to the last three months average price. Gross proceeds of the Placement amounted to approximately PLN 3.7 billion (equal to c. ? 890 million
), resulting in a capital gain of approximately ? 135 million*, which will be entirely accounted to equity reserves, as Pekao remains a fully consolidated subsidiary of UniCredit, and will translate into an increase in the Group CT1 ratio BIS2.5, based on Group risk weighted assets as at 30th September 2012, of c. 20bps. As already announced, after the completion of the Placement, UniCredit continues to hold a majority shareholding in Pekao, corresponding to 50.1% of the Company?s share capital. As majority shareholder, UniCredit continues to be fully committed to Pekao, as well as to Poland, which remains core to its franchise and strategy. UniCredit is not envisaging any sales of additional shares of Pekao following the completion of this Placement. In this context UniCredit has agreed to a 1
year lockup period from closing of the transaction with respect to sales of additional shares of Pekao, in line with market practice for similar deals. UBS Limited and UniCredit CA-IB Poland S.A. acted as Joint Global Coordinators and together with Citi as Joint Bookrunners for the Placement. * Assuming EUR/PLN exchange rate equal to 4.20 (ECB foreign exchange reference rate as of 30 January 2013).
